I was thinking about the meaning of embodiment.
To me it means that what is within us comes to the surface and shows in our being. It shines through in our gestures, in our tone, whether we move fast or slow, whether we take a moment to smile and of course what we say, how we say it and lastly our actions. Embodiment is how we use our body to bring our inside into the outer world.
So I am finding ways to use dance to help us to do exactly that.

Here I am dancing to bring the joy and sensuality that lives inside me into my outer world and into my reality ❤️

Join me on my journey to find expression in dance.
First attempts of creating a choreography to a song that doesn’t let me go. A choreo where expression is the focus, where the inner world comes to the surface and the body chooses to mirror the music. Excited to share more over the weeks and months, incorporate new ways of movement which I learn over time and see the result 🌷 the goal is not to be perfect but to perfectly express what is felt.

No thoughts in this moment. The music is my guide. My body chooses what feels right, how it wants to move, what it wants to express. Fully connected to the beat. ❤️

Melting into this piece of music - it feels amazing in the body to allow and do one movement in different speed and intensity, allowing it to be fully explored and whenever the body is ready to finish and go into the next - love my somatic practice ❤️

I had an interesting conversation at a friend’s birthday party recently, where we talked about what helps to move stuck energy and we named yoga, sound baths, reiki, breathwork… then I realised D A N C I N G of course 🙌 it’s a very personal creation that comes from within and your body does intuitively know how to move to help the flow of energy - it can give you goose bumps, it can give such a booooost of energy, provide clarity of what is really important for you in life

Last weekend I’ve hired a studio for 2 hours just for myself, just me having space for myself to soak in the music, feel it with every cell of my body and this is what came out ❤️

A magical place which is one with nature - feeling so honoured to have experienced to stay in the Earthship in Augusta, a long awaited dream came true. I know for sure that this kind of place will be my home one day too. It warms my heart how it’s all out of recycled or natural materials like sand, clay, straw, wood, old tyres & bottles & cans and it turns out to be so so beautiful. Built in such a smart way that no heating or cooling required at all - the inside temp is around 20degrees in winter and climed a max of 24 degrees on a 40 degree summer day. Collecting rainwater, reusing wastewater for plants and all electricity from solar power - it even won the national award for sustainable building in 2024. If anyone wants to experience it is truly amazing and you can stay there just like in an airbnb
